Three flatmates, Alex, David and Juliet are all close friends and are looking for a fourth tenant. After sifting through a handful of dull options they find Hugo, who seems to be ok, and they let him join them, though soon after Hugo is mysteriously dead in the apartment. Leaving behind a shady past and a briefcase full of cash, Alex, David and Juliet are at odd with what to do with Hugo and his money. They eventually decide to bury him in the woods, after cutting his hands and feet off and other forms of identification. This sends David mad with paranoia and concern about being caught and what to do with the money, he eventually moves into the attic. After Alex and Juliet go on a spending spree they are visited by thugs who almost kill them if it weren’t for David. Now detectives come knocking looking for answers, and the three friends are now all distrustful and have turned on one another.
